I gave it a sentence, which I created by placing 500 circles via a genetic algorithm to form a sentence. And then drew with an actual physical circle:

Interestingly, it sees the circles just fine, but not the sentence. It replied with this:

    The image contains no text or other elements
    that can be represented in Markdown. It is a
    visual composition of circles and does not
    convey any information that can be translated
    into Markdown format.

I can't read this either.

Edit: at a distance it's easier to read

If you squint it’s easier too. I wonder if lowering the resolution of the image would make the text visible to ocr.

I wonder if you could do a composite image, like bracketed images, and so give the model multiple goes, for which it could amalgamate results. So, you could do an exposure bracket, do a focus/blur, maybe a stretch/compression, or an adjustment for font-height as a proportion of the image.

Feed all of the alternatives to the model, tell it they each have the same textual content?
